Oh I love a charity shop so I often visit a few in every town I stay at, and this one "Saint…read moreVinny's" to the locals came highly recommended. A few things that really set this charity shop apart: -Super bright, clean and organized. -Curated selection, everything looked clean and ready to wear. -Tidy kid's section, nothing overwhelming. -Higher quality (than typical for thrift shop) furniture, glassware, and shoes, even musical instruments!! -Staff were amazingly attentive, welcoming and helpful. Loaded up a heavy piece, a keyboard, right into my car for me. -Prices lower than Goodwill, by a significant amount!! Thank you!!!! I'll be back!!

She was a no-show. Called to find out she was off. Called main number Tuesday. Henry said they would pick up Wednesday. They showed up Wednesday an hour late, but I wasn't concerned because there was snow on the ground and I knew they would refuse again, legitimately. Called Michelle, she was told I would move the three pieces to my garage. That conversation never took place. Lots of communication issues here and I have wasted 10 days time.

This place needs some love and I am literally so sad I never checked this place out until recently…read more I came here looking for a couch and certainly left with one which I've included below. I'll say that you shouldn't go in with expectations hoping you'll find something same day. However, I've already been back more than once this week and I keep leaving with things I need! I got this couch for $100 and I feel lucky! One of the legs could use replacement for aesthetics but it is sturdy in its current state even if don't fix it. I also picked up a table (I'm using it as an end table) for $15 because it was missing 4 nuts to attach the top to the legs. It had a few scratches on the table top but a little sharpie fixed it. I went in again and found a nice circular mirror for $35. I've been super pleased with my finds. Things are constantly being added so if you love something that much, buy it! Not everything is a "deal" per say but you can find some good things here. Check out their Facebook page as they've been a little bit more active on adding some of the things they've been selling which got me into their actual store!

If you're looking for great, high quality, and unique furniture and home decor, the Cozy Home is perfect for you!

In my quest to leave no thrift store unturned (at least on the east side), I visited the Salvation…read moreArmy thrift store. The last time I was there it was a Tuesday Morning or something. I think they must have taken a wall down or something, it seems way bigger now. The place had the usual thrift store feel. Not pretty, not fancy, but with the whiff of potential. Well, that whiff delivered! (That sounds gross.) I found five different items (two skirts, one jacket, two shirts) all for less than $15. Like anywhere else you need to really dig. The signage was not great, very inconsistent, but it seemed like they were making an effort. It was mostly clothing (mostly women's) with a wall of books, some bedding and luggage near the books, and I think a little furniture. Honestly, I was there for the women's clothes and paid almost no attention to the rest of it. There are three changing rooms (all tiny, but mine had a working lock for which I was grateful), and they do take plastic. The color of the day was purple, meaning that everything with a purple tag was half off (the jacket!). The pricing varied within the categories (example: a shirt could be $4.99 or $7.99), depending on the perceived value. To sum up: I will go again.

Multiple times, I've had employees ignore that I was at the front waiting for several minutes for checkout -- like they have looked at me, made eye contact, and kept doing their task without coming to the front or contacting anyone else to do so. They also don't wrap fragile items even if I ask them repeatedly to wrap fragile items and throwing them in thin fabric clothing doesn't cut it. I'm always wary about this and now I carry packing paper to do it myself in the car afterwards, which is ridiculous with Goodwill prices. They clearly use Google lens to make pricing decisions based on active listings, not actual sales. They get their merchandise for free, so the significant up charges and pricing make me angry and feel exploitative, at minimum. I have found other thrift stores and don't go here much anymore.

Much easier to find sizes when they had them hung up on racks. There was a large variety of household items and Christmas stuff (1/2 off). I love the drive-through donation drop off here. We had a truckload of stuff, so this made it really easy to drop off stuff and then head into the store right after. The staff was super friendly and helpful. Their prices on gently used stuff is pretty great. Perfect for Halloween costume time and for ugly holiday sweater season.

Their Halloween selections are great. I always seem to find, a least a couple of items to purchase. They are also one of the stores I can depend on to carry a decent amount of Hanukkah items.

There isn't a ton of staff, but when I need something , there is someone near by to ask. They have a good selection of pieces at discounted prices. There is always a deal you can find.
